Working Principle of Through Hole Resistor FMP3WSJT-73-360K

The FMP3WSJT-73-360K utilizes metallic conductive particles to restrict an electrical current. It is constructed from a number of layers of alternating materials and is high temperature soldered to maintain firm and consistent connections. One layer is composed of ceramic material, which has low temperature coefficient and low versus temperature characteristics. Another layer comprises of a thick-film, which is a metallic material with an insulating layer. The layers form an insulated body in which a number of discrete resistors have been mounted.

When an electrical component is connected to the two contact points of the resistor, it causes electric charges to flow through and in turn produces a voltage drop. The voltage drop across the resistor is inversely proportional to the amount of electric current passing through it. This resistance is fixed due to the nature of the material used in the resistor body. The electric current is dissipated as heat energy, which is beneficial for ensuring stability and steadiness of the current applied across it.
